LSU forward Magnum Rolle has left the men's basketball team, Tigers coach John Brady said today.

LSU will give Rolle his release, so he can pursue any other future interests as it relates to
his basketball career.

"Despite the development of several players who have had the patience and made it to the next level in our program at his position, sometimes the parties involved do not agree on a developmental process of the player as it relates to the team," Brady said. "When that happens, other options may be explored. We wish Magnum well with his future in
basketball and his pursuit of his education."

Rolle in two years at LSU played in 60 games with nine starts, averaging
2.8 points per game and 3.2 rebounds.
